Elvira stood frozen for a few seconds, certain she must have been mistaken. But she remembered it clearly. One line meant negative, and two lines meant positive, meaning she was pregnant.

Feeling a rush of excitement, Elvira quickly grabbed another pregnancy test, opened it, and tried again. One minute later, the result was unmistakable two clear lines.

Elvira spun around twice in the bathroom, overwhelmed with emotion. But then doubt crept in. She thought to herself, 'What if the test is expired? What if it's faulty?'

"Yes, both of them. What's going on with you? Are you hiding something from me?" Elvira asked, staring intently into Samantha's eyes.

Samantha's gaze faltered for a moment, her smile failing to mask her unease. "What could I possibly be hiding from you? We're so close... There's no way I'd keep anything from you."
